Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of postoperative treatment on endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) and to discover the best way of care. METHOD: We checked 54 patients who had undergone ESS and been followed-up. RESULT: 7 cases (13.0%) were found with recurrent nasal polyps; 8 cases (14.8%) with recurrent sinusitis; 7 cases (13.0%) with adhesion and 10 cases (18.5%) with incomplete epithelialization. CONCLUSION: A suitable postoperative treatment and reasonable regular following-up by endoscopy is one of the important segment for securing optimal long-term result.
